If you upgrade to AP4 you CANNOT downgrade to anything except the hacked AP3

Don't be an asshole. YES HE CAN, he just needs to wait for the downgrade tool that hasn't been released yet.

Why do we have so many people on the Athena sub-board with an attitude problem? Treat everyone nicely, they'll treat you nicely.

I think the athena boards are quite tame, compared to the Hermes and Kaiser forums...In those forums you will be called 4 letter words for not searching or posting a new thread instead of posting in the proper thread...

Of course, in those forums new roms come out every day, so there is a lot more activity.

Has the downgrade tool been confirmed in the works? I am waiting on it or the next version after 4.0 I am not happy with AP 4.0 at all right now to many issues with applications etc :(

not really confirmed, just few words from the dev team, no ETA ... would be a disaster if this tool is not released...

Yes, I am also having some issue with AP4, but I have changed several items and it now at least usable.

1) I removed all keyboards/sips except the default and I added resco keyboard. I believe some of the newer sips like the manilla keyboards were causing me memory issues.
2) I shutoff touchflo
3) I shutoff Vueflow
4) I changed several registry keys to performance setting via sktools.
5) I installed the Opera 8.65 cab and removed the opera 9.x
6) Removed Manilla Dialer

Also, changed a few registry items found in the forums wiki's for universal and kasier.

Most changes above were performed using SKtools, Schaps Advanced config app and PHM Registry editor. I still have issue with the photo album, but i do not use it much.

So for me, it now is a usable device again and better than ap3. DO i wish i could downgrade the SPL and try one of the other wm6.1 rom...Yes

Sorry, I did not make a list of the reg changes, but most can be accomplished with sktools and/or readng the universal wiki registry edits

As for mail address prediction? Do you mean suggest words etc

did you go into settings, select personal tab, select the input icon, select the word completion TAB,

check suggest words when entering text
Change Suggest After entering to "1 letter" (i think the default is space which does not suggest words until a space is entered, totally useless)

set the other check boxes to your preference!

Remember word completion will store what you type most often, thus the email addresses, words etc

My problem is in "suggest words". There are options for 1, 2, 3 or 4 words suggested, but is impossible to mark a number. I think again the registry is not very fine. The curious comment is that teksoft keyboard does suggest words, that means AP team deploy this part of the rom only fine with software keyboards but not the phisical one.

This is the worse upgrade I ever made of a device. And no way to solve. I feel stupid after several years testing rom upgrades.

AP 4 is totally unusable for business. Maybe nice youtube video capacity, or maybe music, but no way to have it working.
I am starting to use again a blackberry device I have: totally usable for word prediction, gps really superfast.

Irus,

I applaud you for releasing this however it does not cure the issue with software not running/incompatiable (I tested using your vanilla release) I believe the software issue we are experiencing is tied to the SPL version someone feel free that knows more than I do jump in :)

Irus,

I applaud you for releasing and realize you did this so we would have more of a selection. For those of use hoping this will cure the software not running/incompatabilites etc this however does not cure the issue (I tested using your vanilla release) I believe the software issue we are experiencing is tied to the SPL version someone feel free that knows more than I do jump in :)

Marsware Weatherpanel V2.5.1 - loads and runs but after soft reset hangs device have to hard reset, no problems on AP3.0 and others are reporting no issues on the Kaiser (WM 6.1) etc I have tried it right after a hard reset so no other 3rd party software installed except for the programs iactually n the ROM

Skype

Garmin Mobile XT - loads and runs but is so slow (installed to microdrive then to Storage Card) you will miss a turn before it indicates it. This maybe due to performance and not necessary to the SPL

I don't use the HTC Home takes up to much real estate for me. I tried the above in both AP 4.0 and Irus's Vanilla ROM

Thank you so much for your support and help. I wonder if you can intergarte the SPL 3.5 with the official full HTC Advanatage X7500 WM6 ROM Ship withouth removing any application from it? The HTC WM6 you have made is incomplete and lacks many nessary applications plus the extension rom is not added.

Besides that, I get stuck with APP4, and I want to return back to offical HTc roms. In other hand, since the APP4 is X7510-based Wm6.1 Rom, can you provide me with a link for offical HTC Advantage X7510 WM6/ WM6.1 ROMs?

Cmonex,

I went back to the AP 3.0 for SPL3.5 and it does the same thing, before I upgraded to to AP 4.0 and SPL3.5 it was running just fine under AP 3.0 Am I missing something here?

Thank you for the reply

You are correct I was finally able to verify this. Apperantly AP 3.0 is based on WM6.0 and NOT WM6.1?

Thank you for pointing this out and I thought I had covered all the bases.

read the forum in a little more detail. once you have ap4 with olinet 3.5, you can go to ap3 dual with 3.5 olinet. this is a special ap3 dual for spl 3.5

http://htc-hackers.com/uploads/ap3newspl.zip

works perfectly, stable, no probs, like the original ap3 dual ( only spl is different).

meanwhile, we all wait for the solution to downgrade to original wm6, should not be long.

Thank you once again. The problem with the forum is that there are too many smart people that are bored with themselves and thats why they are posting things where nobody is asking them , and reading the forum is so difficult. So thanks to you I got the Athena working again at a good standard :)

Is there any way to revert to the original HTC ROM (WM5) - as this requires to get back to the SPL 1.20 or lower ?
As I can see, many people expect some solution since July 2007.
PLease, let me know whther there is some solution, especially one to be driven from the SD card, without USB connction.
